Wonderful Stories From Northern Lands is a collection of short stories written by Julia Goddard and published in 1871. The book contains a total of twelve tales, each set in a different country in Northern Europe, including Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland. The stories are primarily aimed at children and young adults and are written in a style that is both engaging and educational. They offer a glimpse into the cultures and traditions of the countries in which they are set, and often feature elements of folklore and mythology.Some of the stories included in the book are The Elves and the Shoemaker from Sweden, The Magic Pipe from Norway, The Giant's Heart from Denmark, and The Little Mermaid from Denmark (which later inspired the famous story by Hans Christian Andersen). Overall, Wonderful Stories From Northern Lands is a charming and entertaining collection of tales that will delight readers of all ages and provide a fascinating insight into the rich cultural heritage of Northern Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
